We stayed at VWL last week and requested a pool or lake view room. Unfortunately, we got neither. Our room was on the 2nd floor looking out in the direction of the lake, but the foilage was too thick to see the water. It was not a bad view, though. I would much rather have this view than the other side of the resort that looks out to the walkway and bus area. It was very quiet and relaxing. I think some of the higher floor rooms could have lake views, but very few.
